Delving Into Difference

An Open Summit to Artfully Confront Hate and Propel Powerful Work in Arts in Education

Our recent election and the devastating aftermath has created a surge of uncertainty, fear, and anxiety. The current political climate has summoned artists and arts educators around the world to respond in meaningful and powerful ways. CtC is no different, and we join the fight against oppression and fear via the arts in education. We hope to confront these issues with compassion and fierce regard for the rights of those who have been unjustly targeted.

We at CtC will utilize this summit to unite both our shared concerns and hopes for a better future. We will collectively grapple with these questions: How does the union of the arts and education help us envision a future that celebrates difference, creates equity and includes all voices? Can deep conversation through the arts build bridges and break down walls?

We will provide a safe space for art, activism and liberating educational practices. Please join us as we come together to RESIST fear and hate while learning in and through the arts.
